The effects of silane coupling agents on styrene‐butadiene rubber (SBR)‐mica composites have been studied with special reference to the technical properties and polymer‐filler interaction. Silane‐treated mica improves polymer‐filler interaction, which subsequently enhances the tensile and other technically important mechanical properties. Failure surfaces of tensile, tear, and wear specimens have been examined under scanning electron microscope (SEM) and the fractographs have been correlated with the strength and failure mode of the composites.
